About our mastic sealing in Abbotts Ann
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you’re dealing with movement joints with sealant missing and brittle perimeter mastic across a building, we can help, on shopfronts below residential blocks, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Abbotts Ann? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
For buildings around smaller places like Abbotts Ann, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photos of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Leave it or put it right?
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. For buildings around smaller places like Abbotts Ann, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Do you need mastic sealing in Abbotts Ann?
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone and the repair soon fails.
Look out for the following:
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Failed external movement joints
- No planned programme for sealant
If you look after a block within reach of Andover station (2.3 miles north-east of Abbotts Ann), frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

Common questions from Abbotts Ann clients
Is a smaller place like Abbotts Ann outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you quote for a block close to Andover station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers, and entrances stay in use.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Block-wide and estate programmes are common. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For work around Abbotts Ann, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.
